Looks good.

I had Seattle edge re-profile mine to get the belly out and convex the edge. IT IS AWESOME! Easy to re-sharpen also and its been my EDC for awhile now. Waiting for the 566 which will bump it out of my pocket.

You removed the belly even more then I did the edge is so much more usable then stock

Easiest way to get a polished edge is with a diamond coated sanding sponge. Norton makes them in a variety of grits up to 2000. This isn't necessarily the best way, but it takes the least sharpening skill & time. If you know how to sharpen convex edges, you can use them to get some really beautiful edges on blades.
